Beautiful Peaceful View card the easy way with video & free project sheet


For my June card clubs I knew I wanted to feature the Peaceful View stamp set.  This gorgeous stamp makes it easy to create a stunning card with.  I've asked for this type of stamp for years and finally got one! 


Could you ask for a more perfect background for this image?  Where did it come from?  It's a piece of designer series paper – from the Thoughtful Journey 6" X 6" DSP seen here.   It's absolutely the perfect choice and much easier than creating a coloreful background with ink. 

The majority of the papers work well for this stamp so my club members could pick their favorite. 

We inked the tree scene with Secret Sea ink and stamped on the designer paper.  It's then adhered to a full 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" piece of Balmy Blue CS before it's added to the front flap of the card base (front is folded back once).  

For the greetings I stamped the More Messages stamp a few times and used the coordinating die to cut them all out.  I had tons of greetings for them to choose from.  They then layered them onto another Balmy Blue strip or die-cut. 

What I love about this latest messages bundle is that the greetings and die-cuts are larger than ever before. See the bundle here. 

Here's the free project sheet with measurements and supplies for you: Download Peaceful View June Club

Below is the video for this card and another where I show you how to add color to the stamp. I'll share details on that project tomorrow.

  • Beautiful Team Swaps; featuring a tree theme


    Last weekend we held our monthly Flowerbug's Team meeting and swap.  I can't wait to share all of the cards with you!  Our theme was to use leaves, trees or water on a card and each and every one is amazing!!! I'll share a few each day this week.  

    First is a card made by Annette featuring the Beauty of the Earth designer paper.  

    The clean and simple design really shows off this beautiful designer paper – Beauty of the Earth.  It is on the retiring list right now; see it here.  The bottom strip of a line of trees is one of the papers in this pack.  What a perfect way to show it off and how well it coordinates with another sheet she used for her large circle.  The sentiment is from 'In the Moment' stamp set.  This was cased from Rachael Tessman.

    Next is a card created by Marilyn. She also used the pretty Beauty of the Earth designer paper. 

    The card stock is Night of Navy and she used Old Olive accents with the Bough Punch.  The dies are the Stitched So Sweetly which are on the retiring list and one I'm soooo sad to see going away!  See it here.  

    Her card is a fun fold – Card base is 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4" on the 8 1/2" side.  The DSP is1 7/8" X 5 1/4"

    Next is a pretty card made by Tracey.  She is featuring the Beauty of Friendship bundle seen here. 

    Her main image is stamped on our 12 X 12" Linen paper seen here.  After stamping her tree and cloud she colored the background with Blends markers!  Who knew you could stamp & color on it so beautifully!?  

    She adhered the linen (since it's adhesive-backed) to her paper first.  Then used the Take Your Pick tool to pull away some of the threads on the sides.  Isn't this amazing!  

     

    I'll share more of our Flowerbug's incredible swap cards tomorrow.

  • Neat Accordion Window Flip card fold with Crane of Fortune with video!


    I shared a few fun fold cards on last week's Tuesday Facebook Live.  I featured the Crane of Fortune bundle from the 2022 Spring Catalog by Stampin' Up!  This bundle is not returning in the new Annual Catalog next month. See it here

    It's beautiful in Gray Granite, Calypso Coral and Evening Evergreen.  The colors were chosen because of the Symbols of Fortune specialty DSP.  It's gorgeous!  The photo below does NOT do it justice!  

    The Good Fortune dies coordinate with this designer paper.  I was able to cut the pretty flower on the front directly from this paper.  I did fussy cut the smaller flower to add above it.  

    Isn't this a neat fun fold?  And it's so easy too.  Watch the video below or click here.  It includes another unique fun fold as well as an easy card with your designer paper. 

    I die-cut the window and the rectangle layers with the Stitched Rectangle dies seen here.  Love these dies!  


    Measurements:

    • Card stock 5 ½” X 8 ½”
    • White inside 5” X 8”, score at 2, 4, 6, 8” on the long side
    • Window is 2 ¼” X 3 5/8”, DSP 1 ¾” X 3 1/8”
    • CS is 2” X 3 3/8”
